Rooting for baseball teams not named the Cardinals is a difficult thing for me. I can always think of a reason to root against a team. Rarely are there teams who aren’t objectionable in the slightest. We may very well have one of those teams in the playoffs right now, although whether they advance to the LCS is another matter. When it comes to winning the World Series, I have a lot of trouble rooting for a specific team. I end up focusing on matchups - well “this team isn’t as bad as the other one” tends to be my philosophy.
